The ideal candidate will have hands-on FARO experience, strong GD&T knowledge, excellent problem-solving skills, and a commitment to maintaining high-quality standards.

Key Responsibilities

Perform precision dimensional inspections using the FARO Arm/FARO Laser Tracker and associated software (e.g., PolyWorks, FARO CAM2, Verisurf) to verify parts against CAD models and engineering drawings

Develop, run, and maintain FARO inspection routines/programs for first article inspection (FAI), in-process checks, and final part verification

Generate and interpret dimensional inspection reports, deviation reports, and point-cloud/color-map comparisons to CAD

Perform inspections on raw materials, in-process items, and finished products to ensure they meet quality and safety standards

Use conventional measurement tools (e.g., calipers, micrometers, gauges) to supplement FARO measurements and verify product dimensions and specifications

Conduct visual inspections to identify defects such as cracks, deformations, or surface imperfections

Read and interpret GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) on technical drawings to establish inspection criteria and datum structures

Document and report inspection results, including any non-conformities, in accordance with company procedures

Work closely with engineering and production teams to address quality issues, investigate root cause, and implement corrective actions based on FARO data

Maintain and calibrate FARO equipment, ensuring certification schedules are met

Maintain accurate inspection records and prepare quality reports, including First Article Inspection Reports (FAIR/AS9102 if applicable)

Ensure compliance with ISO or other quality standards applicable to the industry

Support internal and external audits as needed, including providing FARO-generated dimensional data

Perform other duties as assigned by a supervisor, lead person, or management

Qualifications

High school diploma or equivalent required; technical training or certification in quality control, metrology, or CMM/FARO operation strongly preferred

1-3+ years of hands-on experience operating a FARO Arm or FARO Laser Tracker required

3-5 years of experience in quality control or a similar role, preferably in a manufacturing or production environment

Skills

Proficient in FARO hardware operation and associated inspection/reporting software (e.g., PolyWorks, CAM2, Verisurf, or similar metrology software)

Strong understanding of GD&T and ability to build inspection plans from engineering drawings/CAD models

Proficient in using conventional inspection tools and equipment (e.g., calipers, micrometers, gauges)

Strong knowledge of quality control standards and techniques (ISO 9001, AS9100, etc. as applicable)

Ability to read and interpret technical drawings, blueprints, and 3D CAD models

Excellent attention to detail and organizational skills

Proficient in MS Office and quality management software; experience with SPC or CMM data software a plus
